Weeks 4 - 5: This
is a REALLY BIG problem “I’ve been using GCCS for 7 years and I still don’t know how to filter with it.” - Surface Warfare Officer Week 4: There isn’t really a Common Operational Picture... “Pacific Command, Pacific Fleet, and 7th Fleet see the same ship in different places.” - PACOM officer

Weeks 8 - 9: Towards
the Future Week 8: Command & Control of the Future (C2-F) “If I had you four working for me, I’d have you work on C2 for your generation.” - 3rd Fleet

Weeks 8 - 9: Towards
the Future Week 8: Command & Control of the Future (C2-F) “If I had you four working for me, I’d have you work on C2 for your generation.” - 3rd Fleet Week 9: Sponsor is excited about C2-F “You guys have grasped what very few people understand.” - Sponsor, 7th Fleet “I’d like to stay involved in what you are doing moving forward!” - Sponsor, 7th Fleet

Final MVP - Command &
Control of the Future CIC PACOM Surface radar contact but no AIS… This is odd. Let me ALERT others.

Final MVP - Command &
Control of the Future CIC PACOM Surface radar contact but no AIS… This is odd. Let me ALERT others. I see an ALERT from DDG102. Lets share the C2 screen and take a look

Next Steps Goal: Develop dual-use
“Command & Control Tool of the Future” based on collaborative data aggregation tool for the IUU fishing use case We’re going to continue working on this Navy and sponsor interested IUU Fishing folks are interested

Learning Progression: Week 3 ●
Week 3 ○ Hypotheses ■ Sensor deployment is the major issue ○ Experiments: ■ Visit to NPS ○ Learning: ■ N3 (Ops) owns N2 and N6--we had only been speaking to N2 ■ Pete: what decisions are people actually trying to make? ■ Ship-based radar is all that’s automated--data fusion is very manual! ■ Our problem came from PACOM->PACFLT->7th Fleet...affects how we think about it ■ Lots of single-purpose data fusion tools exist--don’t fall into that trap--how do you do modular updates without creating single-use tools? ■ There are specific systems (GCCS) that we should be thinking about learning more about

Learning Progression: Week 4 ●
Week 4 ○ Hypotheses ■ Data fusion/aggregation is the problem--need to find out more about specific needs ○ Experiments: ■ Conversations with variety of stakeholders (N0, N2, N3, N6, J5, J8, etc.) ○ Learning: ■ PACOM, PACFLT, 7th Flt see different things--COP is not really a COP ■ Analysts do data layering manualy on GCCS, and there’s usually too much there to be useful ■ Automation would be helpful (and our own algorithms could be useful) ■ Common, easily searchable database would be desirable ■ Don’t actually care that much about A2/AD! Subset of a bigger problem! ○ Proposed solution (MVP) ■ Updated previous MVP--now we include automated push alerts and clickable vessel-specific

Learning Progression: Week 6 ●
Week 6 ○ Hypotheses ■ The overall C2 system needs to be modernized--there are programs in existence to do this ○ Experiments: ■ Send out spreadsheet to contact list, get understanding of awareness of current programs ■ Speak with ONR research staff about existing programs ○ Learning: ■ Intel is not the same as COP ■ Most users do not have a good sense of which programs already exist for modernizing various parts of the C2 system (Quellfire, EWBM, ADAPT, etc.) ■ Very difficult to get UNCLASS-level details on C2 programs ■ anti-IUU Fishing (Illegal, Unregulated, Unreported) is a great analog use case for desirable Navy C2 functionality ○ Proposed solution (MVP)

Data Acquisition Contextualized Database Week
2 MVP: Sensor Deployment System Deployment Last Month Today Object-oriented Database Query - What data is most useful to capture? - What sensor modalities can capture? - What products exist? - What deployment options exist? - What is easiest to deploy? - What is “good-enough” time to data acquisition? - What is the deployment process? - Is .kmz format all that is necessary for compatibility? - What do companies like Palantir do today?

Core Navy Procurement Process PACOM
To win a war, we need to have awareness of potential adversary's disposition of forces within the area we intend to operate and be able to maintain that through all phases of the conflict (Joint Intelligence Preparation of the Environment) PACFLT Use the Navy in 3rd and 7th Fleet to conduct JIPOE 7th Fleet Direct ships, aircraft, submarines, marines, and other sensors to conduct JIPOE 7th Fleet N2 Task, Collect, Process, Exploit, and Disseminate and maintain JIPOE for C7F 7th Fleet N2, LT Knudson Identify potential operational gaps and determine possible ways to fill those gaps 1. Operational Requirements flow down from PACOM and is interpreted at each level: Operational Requirements

USFF PACFLT 7th Fleet Do
I have the tools to accomplish my Operational Requirement? Yes No YAY, Done Does PACFLT have the money and/or resources to fund it? Send Acquisitions Requirement to PACFLT Yes No YAY. Validated and resourced. Done. PACFLT “endorses” requirement, sends to US Fleet Forces Command Is USFF able to fund or resource this requirement? Yes No YAY. Validated and resourced. Done. Send to OPNAV OPNAV Is there an existing Program of Record? No YAY. Done Make new POR and include in Navy’s budget via SECNAV, SECDEF.. Send to Congress. Congress Budget approved? Yes Acquisition Requirements
